Hello,
Your throat hurts on and off frequently. You have been blowing out light green phlegm from your nose. Cough is annoying at night and interferes with sleep. You also have watery eyes and nose. When the mucus in the respiratory system is blocked, it causes bacteria to accumulate, thereby causing infections. You are coughing green sputum is indicative of bacterial infection leading to nasal discharge, congestion, coughing,
sinusitis, etc.
Other medical conditions that can cause similar symptoms are
pneumonia,
cystic fibrosis,
tuberculosis, etc. You are suggested to take steam inhalation at least once daily to get relief. Get clinically examined by an ENT, get blood workouts and required imaging tests done. You will be treated accordingly. Get X-ray PNS done to detect deviated
nasal septum that is causing you symptoms of sinusitis (chronic).
To prevent throat hurt, gargle your throat with warm salt water 2-3 times a day. Take
Acetaminophen, one stat to reduce pain and inflammation. You will need a course of antibiotics like
Augmentin to control bacterial infection. Take antihistamine at bed time to get rid of cough and discomfort. Stay away from addictions if any.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
